Music Lessons That Inspire.
Kids can get bored or frustrated with music lessons and struggle to stick with them. (Sound familiar?)
Our curriculum motivates kids to play more music on their own and with others, encourages creative songwriting, and includes lots and lots of games—so kids are inspired to grow into lifelong music makers!
Piano Lessons at Brooklyn Music Factory
Not your typical lesson
Our music lessons are an ears first methodology while still providing plenty of opportunities to read notation and chord charts - which is what pop/rock/jazz musicians read!
Build confidence & creativity
Instead of bored & frustrated, Brooklyn Music Factory musicians are confident in their creativity & ability to play with others.
Connect with others
Staying connected with others is so important - especially now. Our students play music together regularly, and learn to connect and communicate with others through music.
Game-based learning
Game-based learning keeps our lessons fun and effective. We follow our own unique lesson architecture that challenges every student to use their ears before their eyes as they solve the puzzle of music.
Meet Our Piano Teachers
Meet Lena.
Lena grew up in Columbus, Ohio and has a BM in Vocal Performance and a BME in Music Education from Ohio State University, as well as an MM in Vocal Performance from Brooklyn College. She started playing piano at 9 years old. “ I was obsessed with learning to play! I was always jealous of classmates who could.” 🎹
In addition to her time at BMF, Lena is a working musician on the scene! Her coolest gig? Performing at the Opera House in Oslo, Norway. When not playing music, you can find Lena learning different languages... “I'm a language geek it's terrible”. When asked about any fun facts she’d like to share, Lena says, “I got to play a man onstage last year. Like a grown man. Not a kid or anything. I'll find a pic. I look exactly like my brothers in it…” (See below for the pic...it’s worth it 😋 )
Most importantly, Lena has some advice for all BMF students: “Don't second-guess yourself, whether it's in your musical interpretation, or playing Wait A Second!” 💕

(These are both voice related, but you get to see what an awesome teacher Lena is!!)
Meet Jay.
Jay grew up in the Green Mountains of Bennington, Vermont. and has a BM in Music Education from The Crane School of Music at SUNY Potsdam. He started to get really into playing music in middle school, when his band director would let him and a friend jam after school! 🎶
Jay’s coolest gig experience? “I had a DJ gig where I got thrown into a pool. All in all, I'd say that things went swimmingly!” 🏊
When he’s not playing music, you might find jay running or getting in those fruits and veggies! Anything else that he’d like to share with the BMF community? “I recently learned that cats have fewer toes on their back paws. No kitten!” 😹 ( And apparently Jay is quite punny, if we do say so ourselves.)
P.S. Why is Jay playing drums in this photo? He teaches piano AND drums at Brooklyn Music Factory!

What Parents Are Saying

JI M JERSEY
“Zoe loved her class. It’s maybe the first online learning thing she’s enjoyed! She does not like zoom. It makes her very self-conscious and uncomfortable. But not with you! Thank you for making it so warm and comfy for her and the other kids.”
“They were all engaged! My son said,” I wish we had music class everyday!”

Learning music should be fun...
...At least that's what we think! Our students play a BLAM game (that's Big Lesson About Music!) in every lesson. These music games strengthen rhythm, melody, harmony and songwriting skills in a fun and engaging way.
